  • Alpha Release 1 will begin tomorrow morning.  Downloading and installing is now available, but we won't be able to log in until tomorrow.  You can still pledge if you want to get access.  This was the announcement posted this morning: "Early acces…
  • Backers at the Developer level and above have been testing the installer and patcher this weekend in preparation for the release of the alpha to all 25k+ backers in a few days.  There are few tweaks the devs will make, but for the most part things h…
  • Originally posted by Fendel84M Exciting! Though I wish they had at least offered a teeny bit of exploration and combat just one dungeon!! Lol Yeah, this test will occur just in the town of Owl's Head.  It's very focused on testing just a few feat…

  • Will there be pets that can aid you in combat, or will pets only be vanity items?
  • As pledges continue to come for SotA do you expect to expand the size of your staff, or have you reached your maximum team size?
  • Will there be crafting recipes that are only discoverable by trial and error as opposed to purchasing from vendors and trainers or through loot?  If so, what percentage of them?  How many craftable items are you shooting for at launch?
  • MMOs often have social hubs centered around auction houses or important vendors, and this is often where players meet for trade or to form groups.  With many players in SotA acting as vendors based from their homes, which are going to be scattered a…
